In this episode of Dime Machine Flashbacks, Dime Dropper continues on the Dime Machine as he finishes the 1970-71 season and talks about that season's champion, the Milwaukee Bucks. 

He breaks down how the Bucks went from expansion team in 1968 to NBA Champions just 3 years later. He talks about the impact of Oscar Robertson & Kareem Abdul-Jabbar (then Lew Alcindor). 

Through studying the season, Dime found some big similarities with a team of the recent past, the 2014-15 NBA Champion Golden State Warriors. Stephen Curry and his squad get regularly discredited due to what people consider an "easier" route to the title and the injuries sustained to Kevin Love and Kyrie Irving in the Finals, leaving LeBron James with nobody. In this episode, he explains why they shouldn't be discredited at all. 

He also claims that Kareem had the best first 2 seasons of any player in NBA History.
